31st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Two wins last year, the latter in runaway fashion over 1m4f here in November (6lb higher today); shot up the weights and found it tough since but he is creeping back down again; unraced on Flat beyond 1m4f. |

Back to form with a runaway win over 1m4f at Wolverhampton in November but he shot up the weights after that and his form has nosedived since. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seven of his eight wins have come at Kempton including over 1m3f in September; only 1lb higher than for that success but he's been disappointing since and was out the back on his C&D reappearance last month; down the list. |
7/1 |

11th 4 (3) |
8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Veteran who has nothing to prove on this track having won seven times over 1m/1m3f here; can go well fresh so the four-month absence shouldn't be a problem, but the trip remains a moot point. |
5/1 |

24th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Last three starts over C&D; went very close when second of 12 in June then built on his respectable return from a small break to beat 12 others nine days ago; 4lb penalty shouldn't stop him playing a part. |

10st 0lb |
Sole win came on debut here (1m, AW) when trained by Hugo Palmer; fifth of ten on stable debut at Wolverhampton (9.5f) and he stepped up on that first outing for 398 days when going close at Kempton (also AW, 1m3f) last month; one turf run (heavy) was inconclusive; player. |

Sole win came on debut at Lingfield (1m, AW) when trained by Hugo Palmer; sold for 1,000gns last summer; fifth of ten on stable debut at Wolverhampton (9.5f) on first outing for 398 days so he's entitled to come on for it and now steps up in distance for his in-form yard. |

4th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
All seven wins have been on AW (four over C&D) but last win was in 2023; ran his best race for some time when fourth of 12 at Kempton (1m3f, AW) in June; impossible to rule out but needs more. |
10/1 |

4th 11 (4) |
11th Jun 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |

Often front-runs; three-time course winner (1m4f/2m) but he's without a win in two years; struggled in two starts on AW in December and he was beaten 59l at Windsor (good to firm) nine days ago; needs the switch of headgear to spark a revival. |

9st 9lb |
Record in AW handicaps for Denis Quinn since last June reads 5112151113, including two wins over C&D; ran right up to his best when third of 11 in an even stronger contest here five weeks ago; major player on first start for John Ryan (same owner) while Jack Dace is 1-1 on him. |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Record in AW handicaps since last June reads 511215111; finished strongly from the rear to collar Qitaal (who finished third) near the line and shade a blanket finish over C&D last time; has to enter calculations again off only 2lb higher. |
5/1 |

10th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |

Record in AW handicaps since last June reads 51121511 including an emphatic win over C&D; off since winning by a nose at Kempton (1m3f, Polytrack) in December and now 8lb higher, but still hard to leave him out of calculations. |

6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Triple AW winner who showed signs of a revival at Wolverhampton in March and he went close back on turf at Nottingham (8.3f, good) last month; 2lb higher here but he was a well-backed favourite last time and he remains very well treated on old form; big player. |
6/4 |

2nd 2 (6) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
6yo who turned things around with two creditable efforts at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month; his last two wins have been at that track but he remains well treated on his old turf form; could be dangerous back in this sphere but he probably wouldn't want any rain. |
5/2 |

5th 1 (10) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Latest two wins here, at about 1m1f and 7f, both off this sort of mark; it's been a long haul this winter but he looked on the way back over C&D recently, behind a subsequent winner in a higher grade; in the reckoning. |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Made the breakthrough in a 0-55 at Ffos Las (1m4f, soft; 6-4 favourite) last August; failed to back that up in two subsequent starts, the latest when fifth of seven at Redcar (1m6f, good) in November; 2lb lower returned to AW (0-7) for seasonal reappearance. |

Never got involved on the AW last time but had previously got off the mark with a 4l win over 1m4f at Ffos Las (soft); that form brings him into this, off just a 3lb higher mark. |

Twice runner-up on turf this summer (1m4f/1m5f) but beaten a long way last twice, including returned to AW in first-time cheekpieces (retained) four weeks ago; bounce back needed. |

8st 13lb |
His last win was in September 2024 but he went close at Chelmsford (1m2f) in February and he ran respectably over C&D last time; usually comes from off the pace and could be dangerous if he gets the breaks. |
9/1 |

8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |

25th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |

Big prices all starts and has not shown enough in turf and AW handicaps (1m, 1m3f, 1m4f) to think she can be competitive today; first-time cheekpieces replace blinkers. |
